The real Wolf of Wall Street mansion hits the market for $3.9m

The Wolf of Wall Street mansion, originally owned by convicted stockbroker Jordan Belfort before it was seized and sold by the federal government, is for sale again after a broker swap and price cut.

The stucco-and-stone mansion in Long Island is listed for $3.9m (US$2.89m), 15 per cent less than the asking when it was listed back in March 2017.
